How to extract specific data only and create multiple sheets

Dear All,
Thanks for reading. I'm attaching an example file. Basically, what I need is to get data for specific variables for specific countries only. In sheet 1, there are different countries in column 1, each country is repeated for 9 rows for 9 different variables in column 2 and remaining columns are years. Its just a very small sample of 5 countries and 9 variables. In actual sheet I have 180 countries and 30-40 variables. So, lets say I just need to extract data for 2 countries out of 5 and for just 3 variables out of 9. And, I want data for each country available in separate sheets which name themselves by the country name. To demonstrate, i extracted data for china and russia in my example file and created sheets china and russia with data for only 3 variables. Ofcourse I did it manually, but i was wondering if i can write a program telling names of the countries and variables and excel extracts that data in different sheets?
Perhaps it could be done with functions alone.
Thanks very much.
